Christmas Countdown (6, 5, 4)...

Only 6 more days until Christmas... Buddy up... it's GAME NIGHT!

Emersyn and Anna have art on Tuesday afternoons so we have been able to see the Munsons lots and lots during the week this fall. We all love it - especially the kiddos, so it was only fitting that we made them part of our Christmas countdown fun! We pregamed with some day-before-winter snowcones and I have to admit, I love that all 6 were in red. #notevenplanned


They picked out games, buddy-upped and it was GAME ON!

Caroline and Radley won 3 games
Emmy and Anna won 1 game
Landry and Millie won 1 game (and truth: I rigged it because they were so pitifully sad that they kept losing). 

The big winners got... NOTHING!

HA!



Merry Christmas from these Royal Hot Messes!

(The end of the night is always sad because we won't see them for a whole week!)



Only 5 days until Christmas - Let's grab some dinner and go shopping for someone special
(Don't tell Daddy!)

We had the most fun afternoon starting with play dates for the girls. Landry's first time to have a friend over to our house and she was in heaven. I wish you could bottle up the giggles of kindergarten girls - there is just something so sweet about it. Everything is funny or silly or awesome. They are so encouraging to each other "Oh that looks so pretty, Landry... I love the way you did that Ev-a-wyn (Eveyln)" .... just.the.BEST!


Emmy's friend, Hudsyn, got to come over too (and Radley headed straight to the neighbors). From Barbies to school to painting some canvases - they all packed a TON in their two hours. 


We had planned a fancy dinner out (HAHAHA - kidding, we went to McAlister's for $.99 kid meals) and they convinced three more families to come with us! So I don't have one picture of all the amazingly awesome things that they picked out for Ryan... but we had the best night out on that 5th day before Christmas! 

Only 4 days until Christmas - Now that we have all those presents, let's do some wrapping!


One of my most favorite things to do in the whole wide world is wrap gifts. I love it so much that every year I consider doing a little side gig and wrapping gifts for people and then I don't because who doesn't love to wrap gifts?!? 


It's actually pretty hard for me to "let go" and let them wrap but they did the majority of this allllll by themselves. I instructed them on where to cut so we wouldn't waste a bunch of paper, but they got those gifts all wrapped up and ready for Christmas morning!


Only three days to go....
